ESSI Programming Model

7.5.7ESSI Transmit Data Registers (TX[2–0])

ESSI0:TX20, TX10, TX00; ESSI1:TX21, TX11, TX01

TX2, TX1, and TX0 are 24-bit write-only registers. Data written into these registers automatically transfers to the transmit shift registers. (See Figure 7-12and Figure 7-13.) The data transmitted (8, 12, 16, or 24 bits) is aligned according to the value of the ALC bit. When the ALC bit is cleared, the MSB is Bit 23. When ALC is set, the MSB is Bit 15. If the transmit data register empty interrupt has been enabled, the DSP is interrupted whenever a transmit data register becomes empty.

Note: When data is written to a peripheral device, there is a two-cycle pipeline delay while any status bits affected by this operation are updated. If any of those status bits are read during the two-cycle delay, the status bit may not reflect the current status.

7.5.8ESSI Time Slot Register (TSR)

TSR is effectively a write-only null data register that prevents data transmission in the current transmit time slot. For timing purposes, TSR is a write-only register that behaves as an alternative transmit data register, except that, rather than transmitting data, the transmit data signals of all the enabled transmitters are in the high-impedance state for the current time slot.

7.5.9Transmit Slot Mask Registers (TSMA, TSMB)

Both transmit slot mask registers are read/write registers. When the TSMA or TSMB is read to the internal data bus, the register contents occupy the two low-order bytes of the data bus, and the high-order byte is filled by 0. In Network mode the transmitter(s) use these registers to determine which action to take in the current transmission slot. Depending on the bit settings, the transmitter(s) either tri-state the transmitter(s) data signal(s) or transmit a data word and generate a transmitter empty condition.
